Serena woke up the next morning in a good mood, as she remembered the day before.
She laughed to herself at how funny that whole scene had to have looked to on lookers. She got out of bed and started brushing her hair,
when she noticed that her cat Luna had a huge grin on her face.

"Hey Luna, why are you so happy this morning?" she asked.

"I saw you and Darien last night when he was about to kiss you" she said through a grin
"I am happy for you Serena, I really am."

"Oh Luna, he...he well I dunno yet, but what I do know is that he can be fun at times as long as he isn't making fun of me, which was a surprise to me. I really didn't
know he had any intrest in me." Serena said.

Serena started looking through her outfits to find which one would be good today, she looked and Luna."Ya know Luna, I think today is gonna be my comfy day." Serena annouced through a smile.
She grabbed her blue flannel pants with clouds on them, and her moon and star tank top. She then through on her running shoes, she looked at herself in the mirror.

"hmmm....actually I know Raye is gonna kill me for this, because I will wind up being late..... but I feel like going running, I feel like I woke up with so much energy this morning." Serena said happily,
and with that she put her hair into a ponytail instead of the odangos. 'I kinda like my hair in a pony tail' she thought to herself, but shook it off because she knew it wasn't her style....only for work outs did she
ever wear her hair like this or when she did makeover nights with her friends. 'Thinkin about that I will have to ask mom if the girls can stay the night tomorrow night with me so they can help me come up with
ideas for my date.'

"Good for you Serena, you need to do some exercise with all that food you eat!" Luna said jokingly as
Serena rolled her eyes.

"Very funny Luna, let's go!" with that she let Luna climb on her shoulder and she was out the door, and off around the
block.

~~At The Temple~~

"Where is that girl!!!" Raye fumed.

"Calm down Raye, she is always late...I really dunno why you expect her to be early or on time anymore." Lita said as she looked up to
see a gorgeous guy crossing the street.

"Oh my...he looks just"

"Like your old boyfriend" as the other girls finished her sentence.

"Well, normaly I would say that but he looks like Darien......what would he be doing here?' Lita questioned.

"Hey that is Darien.....maybe he's looking for Serena." Ami answered

"Hey Dairen" the girls chorused together.

"Hey girls!" Darien replied back. "Is Serena here?" he asked.

"No, not yet she's always late." Mina replied.

"Good because I need your help.....but you can't tell her okay?"

"Sure Darien....what's up?" Ami asked.

"Well me and Serena have a date Friday night and I need your help.....what kinda stuff is she into, like her favorite foods, and activities?" he asked

The girls faces lit up....they all thought that Darien would be a good match for her, and they were about to find out. The girls and Darien huddled
up into a group and started planning for the big night.

~~At the Track~~

Serena had been thinking the entire time about her and Darien while she was running around the track and talking to Luna about him.
She walked over to the vending machine to get some cold water. She put her money in the machine and grabbed her water as it came out. As she turned
around her smile went to a immediate frown.

"Well fancy meeting you here." Josh replied.

".......um I guess" she said wearily.

"So about yesterday, I am sorry things had to" he started but was cut off.

"Josh what do you want?" Serena asked snidley.

"Josh honey, who are you ....." Callista stopped in mid sentence when she noticed who the other girl was, she smirked.
"Sorry I didn't recognize you with out your odangos...loser."

Serena glared and gave her a dirty look and ignored her and turned her attention back to Josh. "What did you want?" she directed her
question to Josh.

"Just to introduce my new girlfriend Callista, to you" he replied.

Serena's mouth fell open...new girlfriend...already? Did I not mean anything to him she thought to herself. Tears started to
form at the corners of her eyes.

~~On the track~~

Darien noticed Serena at the track and started heading over to her and stopped when he saw another guy walk over to her. She did not look happy to see him at all, he overheard
their conversation as he started to walk towards her....so that's josh huh, and that other girl is....oh gods poor Serena. Darien ran over to her as fast as possible.
~~~~
"Serena..oh Serena...hey there you are sweetie. I have been looking all over for you." Darien stated out of breathe and
kissed her lightly on the lips.

'What is he doing?' Serena thought to herself. The she realized he must have over heard their conversation and trying to not make her look like a fool.

"And just who the hell are you?!" Josh practicaly screamed

Darien smiled to himelf knowing that his planned worked. "Oh, Sorry I am Serena's boyfriend Darien we have been going out since this morning....whoever let this catch go must have
been insane...she is so loving and caring and terrific." Darien said calmly as he noticed Serena smile at his comments.

"I am Josh....and this is Callista, my girlfriend." he said though gritted teeth.

"well, Callista nice to meet you." Darien turned his attention towards Serena. "You ready to go sweetie?" he asked as
he wrapped his arm protectivly around her waist and pulled her close.

'Why does this feel so right' Serena thought to herself as she leaned agianst Darien. "I sure am Muffin. Let's go....Josh I
think it might be best if we just leave each other alone and no longer talk to one and other....and Callista nice meeting you." Serena said through a grin. She turned on her feet and left with Darien.,
leaving a fuming Callista and Josh behind her.

"Thank you Darien" Serena said.

"Anytime Meatball head." he said through a goofy grin.

She stopped and looked at him, and stood on her toes and slowly kissed him. Darien was at first shocked but soon deepened the kiss. Thier tongues entangling each other
in a firey blaze of pure passion. When they finally broke the kiss they were both out of breath. Darien looked over at Serena happily as he looked into her eyes, as they were galzed
over in pure passion for him....just him.

He wrapped his arms around her and she snuggeled closely to him, and took in the scent of his cologne.

"uh hem...hey love birds!"
